WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)

1 Once again Jesus began to teach beside the sea, and such a large crowd gathered around Him that He got into the boat and sat in it, while all the people crowded along the shore.

1 Again he began to teach by the seaside. A great multitude was gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat in the sea and sat down. All the multitude were on the land by the sea.

2 And He taught them many things in parables, and in His teaching He said,

2 He taught them many things in parables, and told them in his teaching,

3 “Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed.

3 “Listen! Behold, the farmer went out to sow.

4 And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.

4 As he sowed, some seed fell by the road, and the birds came and devoured it.

5 Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.

5 Others fell on the rocky ground, where it had little soil, and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of soil.

6 But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.

6 When the sun had risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings, and they yielded no crop.

7 Others fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

8 Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprouted, grew up, and produced a crop—one bearing thirtyfold, another sixtyfold, and another a hundredfold.”

8 Others fell into the good ground and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing. Some produced thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times as much.”

9 Then Jesus said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

9 He said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”

10 As soon as Jesus was alone with the Twelve and those around Him, they asked Him about the parable.

10 When he was alone, those who were around him with the twelve asked him about the parables.

11 He replied, “To know the mystery of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to those on the outside everything is expressed in parables,

11 He said to them, “To you is given the mystery of God’s Kingdom, but to those who are outside, all things are done in parables,

12 so that, ‘they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding; otherwise they might turn and be forgiven their sins.’”

12 that ‘seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing they may hear and not understand, lest perhaps they should turn again, and their sins should be forgiven them.’”

13 Then Jesus said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? Then how will you understand any of the parables?

13 He said to them, “Don’t you understand this parable? How will you understand all of the parables?

14 The farmer sows the word.

15 Some are like the seeds along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts.

15 The ones by the road are the ones where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan comes and takes away the word which has been sown in them.

16 Some are like the seeds sown on rocky ground. They hear the word and at once receive it with joy.

16 These in the same way are those who are sown on the rocky places, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy.

17 But they themselves have no root, and they remain for only a season. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away.

17 They have no root in themselves, but are short-lived. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble.

18 Others are like the seeds sown among the thorns. They hear the word,

18 Others are those who are sown among the thorns. These are those who have heard the word,

19 but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the desire for other things come in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

19 and the cares of this age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

20 Still others are like the seeds sown on good soil. They hear the word, receive it, and produce a crop—thirtyfold, sixtyfold, or a hundredfold.”

20 Those which were sown on the good ground are those who hear the word, accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times.”

21 Jesus also said to them, “Does anyone bring in a lamp to put it under a basket or under a bed? Doesn’t he set it on a stand?

21 He said to them, “Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Isn’t it put on a stand?

22 For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be brought to light.

22 For there is nothing hidden except that it should be made known, neither was anything made secret but that it should come to light.

23 If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”

23 If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.”

24 He went on to say, “Pay attention to what you hear. With the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and even more will be added to you who hear.

24 He said to them, “Take heed what you hear. With whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you; and more will be given to you who hear.

25 For whoever has will be given more. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”

25 For whoever has, to him more will be given; and he who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away from him.”

26 Jesus also said, “The kingdom of God is like a man who scatters seed on the ground.

26 He said, “God’s Kingdom is as if a man should cast seed on the earth,

27 Night and day he sleeps and wakes, and the seed sprouts and grows, though he knows not how.

27 and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, though he doesn’t know how.

28 For all by itself the earth produces a crop—first the stalk, then the head, then grain that ripens within.

28 For the earth bears fruit by itself: first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.

29 And as soon as the grain is ripe, he swings the sickle, because the harvest has come.”

29 But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”

30 Then He asked, “To what can we compare the kingdom of God? With what parable shall we illustrate it?

30 He said, “How will we liken God’s Kingdom? Or with what parable will we illustrate it?

31 It is like a mustard seed, which is the smallest of all seeds sown upon the earth.

31 It’s like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, though it is less than all the seeds that are on the earth,

32 But after it is planted, it grows to be the largest of all garden plants and puts forth great branches, so that the birds of the air nest in its shade.”

32 yet when it is sown, grows up and becomes greater than all the herbs, and puts out great branches, so that the birds of the sky can lodge under its shadow.”

33 With many such parables Jesus spoke the word to them, to the extent that they could understand.

33 With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it.

34 He did not tell them anything without using a parable. But privately He explained everything to His own disciples.

34 Without a parable he didn’t speak to them; but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.

35 When that evening came, He said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side.”

35 On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side.”

36 After they had dismissed the crowd, they took Jesus with them, since He was already in the boat. And there were other little boats with Him.

36 Leaving the multitude, they took him with them, even as he was, in the boat. Other small boats were also with him.

37 Soon a violent windstorm came up, and the waves were breaking over the boat, so that it was being swamped.

37 A big wind storm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so much that the boat was already filled.

38 But Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on the cushion. So they woke Him and said, “Teacher, don’t You care that we are perishing?”

38 He himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him up and asked him, “Teacher, don’t you care that we are dying?”

39 Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the sea. “Silence!” He commanded. “Be still!” And the wind died down, and it was perfectly calm.

39 He awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” The wind ceased and there was a great calm.

40 “Why are you so afraid?” He asked. “How do you still have no faith?”

40 He said to them, “Why are you so afraid? How is it that you have no faith?”

41 Overwhelmed with fear, they asked one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”

41 They were greatly afraid and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”

Cita 4:13 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily XLIV)
Therefore also another evangelist saith that He reproved them, because they do not understand; saying, "How knew ye not the parable?" But not for this cause only doth He speak in parables, but that He may also make His discourse more vivid, and fix the memory of it in them more perfectly, and bring the things before their sight.
